Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a method for treating a heart condition by perfusing a drug through an un-arrested beating heart of a patient. A closed circuit through the patient's coronary arteries and coronary venous system may be formed from a first drug delivery catheter (1822) positioned in the right coronary artery, a second drug delivery catheter (1824) positioned in the left coronary artery, a drug recovery catheter (1826) positioned in a coronary sinus, and an external membrane oxygenation system (1820) fluidly coupled to the various catheters. A drug for treating a heart condition may be perfused through the closed circuit.
